Knight and Pawn on West Broad Street in Henrico is undergoing a facelift after experiencing quite the break-in Saturday morning.
Police told store management that around 5 a.m., someone rammed a stolen vehicle into the shop's front door and surrounding cage, leaving the structure gaping open.
Based on video shown to CBS 6, at least four people then came into the store and went straight for specific weapons on the walls and in glass cases. They were said to have stolen between 30 to 40 guns in a matter of minutes.
"I think they were here for three minutes, and the cops were here in about eight minutes of the alarm going off," said shop manager Morgan Painter.
Painter said the store is undergoing an audit to determine how much merchandise was stolen.
